    The watch is complicated and not very responsive to expectations. I guess must have a Samsun phone to make connections - Not an apple?

    So I use an iPhone and this said that it worked with that. It kinda did. There was a ton of features that wasn’t there so I called Samsung support and was on the phone with some person that didn’t seen to know about there products for about an hour which came down to it’s because you have an iPhone so I returned it. But my sister who has a android operating system it works great

    Initially loved it. After about 4 weeks the screen became distorted and doesn't reset very easily. The screen enlarges and becomes unable to read. It is happening on a regular basis now and I've have had the watch for about 10 weeks. Would not buy again and am out $150 as it is no longer returnable. Disappointed

    Not useful as I hope for. The best part is tracking my sleep and monitoring heart rate during exercise.

    This smart watch is good for tracking basic workouts, but for the money, inopted to upgrade to the larger Samsung smartwatch.

    It looked to small for me. It would have been good if they gave us 2 size options. Apps for Tizen OS not as polished as WatchOS

      Hello Miz22, you cannot make or answer calls directly on your watch unless it has a built-in mic and speaker like the Galaxy Watch Active2, Galaxy Watch, and Gear S3. We know how frustrating it can be when expectations don't quite meet and apologize for any inconveniences. You are a valued customer and your experience matters to us. Thank you for your feedback. ^Elizabeth Samsung

    I suppose this would be good for a smaller (female?) wrist but it was tiny on me and hard to read.
